1st plant, 1st Post (Feminized Sour Diesel by Barneys Farm)

Current smell is very strong citrus,
Trichomes have some amber in them even on the calyxs


She really looks swelled up today, the 3 main colas are probably pushing a 1/4 oz each is my guess. Even the ones in the smaller canopy are starting too look like they could be 1/8ths or so.
Originally I was hoping for 2-3oz now I'm hoping she will give me 4-5. What do y'all think?

Also when it comes to the clone...what kind of light cycle should I have it on? Do I add any nutrients at all to the water? I pretty much took the clone and stuck it in water under a pretty weak grow light for some house plants in the living room

Hard to tell without seeing the whole plant. It is possible. I got a pound off one NL but it was a photo. My last harvest of an auto was more than 6 ounces so very possible. The beast mode gave more but was not really an auti

One more photo, I did this one with my SonyA6000 and a 30mm 1.7 lense and then edited it in Lightroom. I bit the bullet and subscribed back to lightroom so get ready for more edited and better photos
This was a practice one

This one is also a photo but I messed up the training a little and let 3 colas get a little out of control and I didn't do a net or anything. IDK why I didn't now. And a pound!? Holy cow

Damn, they are swelling up. I'd say 4-6oz for that plant. It's really hard to guesstimate weight.

That clone can grow in 18/6 or 24/7 light. Just treat it like a vegging plant. I clone with just jars of water. Takes about 10-14 days. They stay pretty green in just a jar of water. No nutrients needed and simple light works. I often put mine in the kitchen under the stove light. It's plenty to keep them going. Flowering clones can take longer to root but they will eventually.

I need to ask. Ya did make that 45° cut, rough up the stem, and use some cloning gel...didn't you? Lol

This grow has been a good experience for you. I assure you not all will go as easy as this one but as long as you stick to what your doing you'll get successful grows way more than failures.

Now that you've dipped ya toes in the water maybe throw a floater screen in there next run. You'll control height better and have a even canopy that delivers light to the whole plant.

None of the above for the stem on the clone I even thought to myself I said "self we should cut this on a 45° and ruff it up" then proceed to cut straight and drop it into the water...I'll do that now (maybe it's not too late)

I figured that would be true about the success of future grows, you've really helped me a lot since I joined the online community, really can't thank you enough for all the knowledge you freely share

Definitely doing at least some form of a screen the next round 100%

Your very welcome bro. I enjoy helping others. It's kinda what these communities are all about. Plus, by helping you I keep current on things. Win win!

Clones will root in just water with no prep but I assure you it will take longer. I threw one in water a while back. Did nothing to it. Took over a month but it did root. I threw it away eventually. I just wanted to see if it would root. It's prob not to late for your clone. When ya see white patches on the stem she's starting to root.

I often try different methods and am often outside the norm when it comes to growing but if ya don't try ya never know.

I also don't have rooting gel so if water doesn't cut it then oh well not really worried about the clone making it, I'll just pop another seed if she doesn't.

Thanks for the tip about what to look for. You have much nicer clones, I probably should have taken it much earlier just like I should have lollipop my plant more but things I'll do different round #2

Oooh thats pretty Bud Of The Month Sept?

I posted the Sept Thread a little while ago.

Mm idk I might wait and see what else I get between now and harvest at the end of the month but maybe

You can change your bud until voting starts. Just edit your pic and strain info. That is legal and stated in the rules. We love bud porn

 

[greenscreen13]

Now I'm confused with the water, she looks like she's starting to wilt today, normally I would water when she looks like this but the slight curve tips make me say not to...idk if I should feed her or not

 

[WeedHopper]

Can you feel the weight of your pot or stick your finger down in the soil?
I could always tell by the weight of my pots if the needed water or not.

It's hard for me to gage by weight but it feels slightly moist and inch or so deep

 

[WeedHopper]

Then you don't need to water. If you can feel moisture close to the top of the soil it should be more moist in the middle.

I wonder why she droops then

 

[WeedHopper]

If she has been wet for awhile the roots aren't getting enough oxygen. Normally fabric pots dry pretty quick if it's warm enough and getting plenty light.
Does the pot feel heavy?
Honestly though,,that plant doesn't look that Droopy to me.

Yeah it's got a lil weight to it, it's not much but I notice a lil bit of the droopy leafs but I'm still not watering. I'm most likely just over watering

 

[greenmobster440]

That finger....I call it the super sensitive heat seeking moisture missile...put that thing away!!!! The weight won't lie to ya but that finger will.

Pick up the pot. Heavy..no water. Light...water to run off.

Your plant requires more frequent watering at this stage. You want to keep them buds hydrated. In flower I'm watering before they even need water. 1 gal every other day now.

As long as you have good drainage, and water to run off you'll be fine. Make sure your pots is elevated from the catch pan. Don't let it split in overflow.

If your concerned about a pot having to much moisture. Place a fan hitting the soil. It'll dry out faster.

Weight my friend....not that finger.
